Re: Ben Robertson transfer - 2 months ago
Dafatone I was actually talking about this recently with someone. New York also qualifies, but so does every state with an island, which is less exciting. How about "non-contiguous states that look like a mitten"?by Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: D3 2025 champion Hobart over Utica - 2 months ago
Hobart has been coached for the last 25 seasons by Mark Taylor. That name might sound familiar to, er, long-term Big Red fans like me -- he was hired as an assistant coach at Cornell in 1990, after Mike Schafer took an assistant coaching job at Western Michigan. Taylor worked with fellow assistant Casey Jones for a couple seasons and was with the Big Red until 1995, after which he coached at UMasby Give My Regards - Hockey

Trotsky Jesus. Trotsky realizing he's not the most deeply cynical person in a thread for once: I think the Ivies may eventually "do the right thing after exhausting all other possibilities." The grad student restriction is even more pathetically stupid Dignity Theatre than what we usually do to burnish the Pick Me academia knob, so they may quietly let it expire.

sah67 LOL: Yegorov gets annoyed with Kraft being pesky around the net and decides to bear hug him. I remember Ben Scrivens doing something like that once. Of course, he got called for it.by Give My Regards - Hockey

Snowball Jeff Hopkins '82 stereax Who cares about the odds? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? What the f--k happened to the Elynah I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? "Not me! I'm not gonna take this! Coach Pandolfo? He's a dead man! Hutson? Dead! Yegorov?" "Dead!"by Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: A new Rand diss track just dropped - 3 months ago
andyw2100 Here's a relatively minor dig at Pecknold from Schafer in the weekend recap he sent out this morning to whomever gets those. Talking about the short-handed goal: "I couldn’t believe they had four forwards on the ice because their coach had to know we would pull the goalie." Right after the penalty was called, the play-by-play guy noted that Quinnipiac had allowed an appalliby Give My Regards - Hockey

Re: 2024-25 ECAC Champions - 3 months ago
If the Big Red does get Michigan State in the NCAA's, it'll be another 30-years-flashback for Coach Schafer, whose first game as Cornell head coach was 11/3/1995 -- at Michigan State.by Give My Regards - Hockey

Re: ECAC '25 semifinal Red vs. Q - 3 months ago
stereax dag14 I was texting game updates to someone and, after describing the OT goal, noted that it was ironic that the GWG was a PPG, given that our PP was about 59th in the NCAA. After the game I looked up that stat, since I was being sarcastic when I posted. I knew it was bad, but I didn't realize that our PP rank is 62 out of 64 ranked teams. 13 goals on 99 chances. Before tonight. I thinby Give My Regards - Hockey

Re: ECAC '25 semifinal Red vs. Q - 3 months ago
Now you see, that's why they don't play the games on paper. Cornell's sucky power play + Q's top-notch penalty-kill = 1-0 Big Red.by Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: Lake Placid ECAC Championship Tickets - 3 months ago
arugula You sure that it was over spring break? I have a distinct memory of my roommate and I staying up late on a thursday night, watching Letterman, driving overnight to Newark, flying to Denver, through Dallas, bullshitting our way into a fraternity house at the Colorado School of Mines, which actually was on spring break, so they had room for us, then seeing the two games, and flying back onby Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: Lake Placid ECAC Championship Tickets - 3 months ago
dag14 Jim Hyla Anne 85 I see now! I was misled by the fact that there were a couple of blue seats in Section 16 and by the Dartmouth/Quinnipiac situation. Well, we have tickets in the correct section, just not great seats. Should be fine, but if I'm feeling feisty later this afternoon I may call the box office to see if I can make a swap. I may be willing to play the "I'm old and easily confby Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: Opponent and other news and results of interest 2024-2025 - 3 months ago
Dunno how interesting this is, and it's probably been covered somewhere else, but Minnesota State became the first team to clinch an NCAA bid (the CCHA auto-bid) last night. The CCHA championship game isn't until Friday, but MSU's opponent in that game will be St. Thomas, which as part of their transition from D-III to D-I is ineligible for the D-I tournament until next year. So, win or lose,by Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: ECAC Quarterfinals at Colgate - 3 months ago
Trotsky Jack Parker did this with the lead once IINM. Deliberate too many men penalty to force a stoppage and a face off. Got away with it, too. I'm sure you're right, but man, that sounds like Shawn Walsh.by Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: ECAC Quarterfinals at Colgate - 3 months ago
Scersk '97 Once upon a time, there was an awful hockey tournament held at the War Memorial in Syracuse called the Syracuse Invitational Tournament. Close, but awful. ECAC insiders called it the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament. The kind of place where their PA system fails, so the Cornell fans have to lead others in singing the national anthems a cappella. We were up watching us play Prby Give My Regards - Hockey
Re: Cornell at Union 2/28 - 3 months ago
RichH toddlose Chris '03 With Dartmouth’s sweep, this game is officially Union’s last win at Messa/Achilles. Wasn’t their first ecac league win at lynah? I could be imagining this. Yes. One of 2 wins the entire season for them. They’ve always had some sort of voodoo over us. It was actually their second league win; they had beaten Dartmouth a few weeks earlier.by Give My Regards - Hockey
